you have seen more establishment republicans like john mccain and bob dole rally around romney. you are seeing the populist wing and the vanguard conservative wing of the party, whether it is rush limbaugh or sale apparent -- sarah palin or herman cain at rallying around him. tavis: why would anybody believe that mitt romney could actually beat barack obama. and i'm not suggesting that he cannot, but i'm asking why anybody believes that he can given that he has had difficulty rallying his face behind him? >> in some ways, the most important thing happening for republicans in the past few weeks is seen the limitations for mitt romney as a candidate. he has struggled to answer the questions about his background, his personal wealth, his ability to relate to average americans, which are somewhat muted in a republican primary much more so than in a general election. on the other hand, there is one solid bandage to romney as a general election candidate, which is a lot of the upper middle class, socially moderate, slightly right of center and voters who have been so important since 1

and what i would say, as you look at president bush, you look at john mccain, i really think that they were victims in the sense that the hispanic voter in the country was so turned off by what was coming out of the congressional wing of the republican party, that it really fell hard on both president bush ultimately and senator mccain in 2008. so republican party has a lot of work to do. and if you look at the state of california where the republican party has effectively collapsed, one of the chief contributors to its collapse is its collapse and its ability to compete at any level with hispanic voters in the state. >> and president obama is trying to keep it that way. let's listen to what he said on univision. >> i can promise that i will try to do it in the first year of my second term. i want to try this year. the challenge we've got on immigration reform is very simple. i've got a majority of democrats who are prepared to vote for it. and i've got no republicans who are prepared to vote for it. it's worse than that. we now have a republican nominee who said that the arizona laws
